Our Culture
Avid rock climber? Foodie? Hate mornings? Coffee snob? Do you watch nail polish tutorials to relax? Do you speak Klingon? Planning a big family? Sell yarn dolls on Etsy?

We welcome everyone wanting to be a game maker regardless of sex, class, colour, age, gender identity, education, religion, opinion, culture, nation of origin, language, sexual orientation, shape, size, and ability. Did we leave anyone out? Well, we welcome you, too!
